Honestly, neither the MOOKA B-D02L nor the Fulminare P05 offer anything particularly special or noteworthy.
These are two basic air purifiers with simple controls, no advanced features, and a CADR that, in my opinion, is significantly lower than what the manufacturers claim.
Neither device is Energy Star certified, making it difficult to verify their exact CADR. According to the manufacturers, both air purifiers are designed for rooms up to 215 sq. ft. (20 m²).
We performed the same thorough tests we perform on every air purifier we review, and in this article, I’ll compare the results and help you decide which one is the better option to buy.
Our Verdict
Although the Fulminare P05 performed slightly better in the noise and power consumption tests, I don’t think that’s enough to declare it the winner.
What makes the MOOKA B-D02L the better choice is its significantly better performance, advanced features, a larger filter, and—despite the manufacturer’s claiming identical CADR ratings, I believe it has a higher actual CADR.
All things considered, if I had to choose between these two models, my clear and definite choice would be the MOOKA air purifier.

Performance Test – Comparison
We tested the performance of these two air purifiers in rooms with identical dimensions, making it much easier to compare their results side by side.
In the first test, we placed them in two separate tests in a 120 sq. ft. (11 m²) room and measured air quality improvement using a Temtop laser particle meter.
Particle Removal Tests - Comparison
We placed the MOOKA B-D02L and Fulminare P05 in two separate tests and measured their performance using the Temtop laser particle meter.
The MOOKA B-D02L improved air quality by 87%, while the Fulminare P05 achieved a 69% improvement.
In the second test, performed in a 194 sq. ft. (18 m²) room, the MOOKA again proved more efficient. It improved air quality by 81%, compared to the Fulminare P05’s 43% improvement.
It’s clear that the MOOKA is a significantly more efficient air purifier than the Fulminare.
Noise Level Test – Comparison
When it comes to noise levels, the first thing to note is that the MOOKA has four fan speeds, while the Fulminare has three.
We tested both devices at all speeds and compared the results.
At the lowest speed, the MOOKA B-D02L produced a noise level of 40.7 dBA, while the Fulminare P05 measured slightly higher at 41.1 dBA.
Noise Levels - Comparison
Comparison of noise levels at all fan speeds between the MOOKA B-D02L and Fulminare P05 air purifiers.
However, at maximum speed, the situation is quite different, the MOOKA B-D02L reached 61.1 dBA, whereas the Fulminare was much quieter at just 51.6 dBA.
| Fan Speed | Fulminare (dBA) | MOOKA B-D02L (dBA) |
|---|---|---|
| Sleep Mode | - | 40.7 dBA |
| Speed 1 (Low) | 41.1 dBA | 45.9 dBA |
| Speed 2 (Medium) | 44.8 dBA | 52.2 dBA |
| Speed 3 (High) | 51.6 dBA | 61.1 dBA |
Although both devices are reasonably well-optimized in terms of noise levels, the test results clearly show that the Fulminare is quieter overall, especially at its highest speed.
Operating Costs – Comparison
When discussing operating costs, I always start by mentioning motor power. The MOOKA uses a 16W motor, while the Fulminare uses a 6W motor.
This means that if you were to run both devices at maximum speed, 24 hours a day for a month, your electricity bill would increase by around $1.32 for the MOOKA B-D02L and about $0.24 for the Fulminare P05.
Monthly Power Consumption Cost - Comparison
Comparison of monthly power consumption costs for the MOOKA B-D02L and Fulminare P05 air purifiers at all fan speeds.
In addition to electricity costs, there’s also the cost of replacement filters, which are relatively affordable for both devices. However, they need to be replaced up to four times per year, which significantly increases the annual maintenance cost for these two models.
| Fan Speed | Fulminare (W + $/month) | MOOKA B-D02L (W + $/month) |
|---|---|---|
| Standby | 0.2W ($0.02) | 1.2W ($0.11) |
| Sleep Mode | - | 2.8W ($0.25) |
| Speed 1 (Low) | 1.2W ($0.11) | 5.1W ($0.45) |
| Speed 2 (Medium) | 1.6W ($0.14) | 8W ($0.7) |
| Speed 3 (High) | 2.7W ($0.24) | 15W ($1.32) |
Considering its slightly more efficient motor, I would conclude that the Fulminare P05 is better optimized and somewhat more cost-effective to maintain annually compared to the MOOKA.
